We’re presuming people just won’t be travelling by then so the flights won’t go ahead.
Supposed to be flying to Barbados in about 2 hours for a Caribbean cruise on P&O for 2 weeks. At Gatwick now so far so good π

Yeah that isn't happening.
Niece gets married in June in the UK, pretty sure that is in jeopardy for us to go now as I think the US will stop travel from the UK within the week next.

I'll be looking out for Gerri's pictures on Facebook mate.
Dying to see what you look like with one of those face masks on!

Hope you're ok and all but that does seem like a terrible idea right now.
Got some friends who are due to get married in Bali in April.
Friends back in the UK getting married in June & another in August.
My dad was supposed to be coming over here (Canada) in August too.
Gonna be a tough summer if we have to miss out on all that, even if it was going to cripple me financially.

Trump has restricted travel from mainland Europe...but not us yet
We are due to go to San Fransisco to pick up the troubled Princess cruise liner in Late April - early May, can't see it happening
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was right...all cruises off...holiday cancelled

Yeah the federal government here in Canada announced this morning that no ferries of over 500 people would be allowed to dock in Victoria. I guess the same applies to the whole West coast.
Did you get your money back at least?
Boarded the ship in Barbados where we had one day. All was good until the Captain announced during dinner on the first night that the World cruise line body that all cruises were cancelled meaning that our choices were (a) flight home to a airport somewhere in the U.K. And a full refund or (b) stay on the ship while it arrives back in Southampton a week today with all the facilities and a credit of 125% off our next cruise and also about £700 on board spending money for free, so all in all it's not turned out too shabbily.

I should also say that no-one on the ship apparently has the virus as they took all our tempratures before we all boarded.
